Here's an NBC profile with Lester Holt in which Holt describes the band being back in the studio by March 2014 recording new material: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHlUROrKdzw

If I am Fleetwood Mac's lawyers, I gather all this evidence that the album was considered a potential Fleetwood Mac album, juxtapose it with Lindsey's statements to the contrary, and use it to impeach his credibility regarding his assertions about oral agreements.

The real shame of it is that Lindsey probably lied about it at the request of the band's management, or at least at the request of Stevie, and now they might be able to use that favor against him. I hope he has an e-mail or some paper trail of someone from the band or management instructing him what to say, which would to some extent exonerate him on this issue.

y'all are funny making mountains outta molehills. Lindsey AND Christine both toed the company line, saying that album always felt like duets album, when both the 2 of them and Mick have said in the past they were making FM album and just waiting for Stevie - since 2012. they were doing promotion, and as you say - band / management / Mick / Stevie asked them to not make her look bad for the peace in the house and future opportunity to work together as a 5.

and yes - with Fleetwood Mac, being a team player obviously doesn't get you anything. Christine and Neil hopefully are understanding that lesson.
